Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars Recipe
Directions
  • In a mixer bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter and sugars until it is nice and creamy.
  • Add eggs one at a time and blend until each is well incorporated.
  • Add the vanilla and mix well.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the four, oatmeal, baking powder and salt.
  • Slowly add these dry ingredients into the batter until well combined.
  • Spray the baking pan with a non stick cooking spray and spread the batter into the pan.
  • Bake at 325° F for 20-25 minutes or just until the bars are slightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow them to cool while making the icing.
  • In a saucepan, add all of the icing ingredients and melt over a low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Spread over the bars and allow to cool completely before cutting and serving.
